Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I fell a couple of weeks ago and landed on my knees. I had a huge bruise that went away after about a week and a half, but it is still painful to the touch. After the swelling subsided some I found a knot in my leg. The knot is painful and if I bump it or forget and lean against it, it really hurts.
An X-ray and/or physical examination may be required of your knee to further evaluate the cause. I cannot say much about your knee without a physical examination at the least. Please visit an orthopedician for the same.
Best wishes
